More shocking facts are coming forward about the real story behind Leo Emil Wanta, known as the $27.5 Trillion Dollar Man. Some of the new revelations made by researcher and writer, Alf Mendes, claim Wanta had close business ties with Bush Sr. and was involved in money laundering activities with the infamous Marc Rich.

Wanta, a Treasury agent under President Reagan, came on the public scene, depicting himself as a “White Knight”,  riding a white horse with saddle bags full of trillions of stolen off-shore money.

The only problem, he said, was the evil Bush administration was blocking his money and money he was going to direct back to the American people, as Reagan prescribed when Wanta was assigned the task of destabilizing the Russian ruble at the end of the Cold War, now amounting to trillions of dollars in hundreds of scattered off-shore back accounts.

The former Treasury agent also said publicly he was fighting the evil New World Order and at serious odds with the last three Presidential administrations, who he said had stolen hundreds of trillions of dollars earmarked for the American people.

In order to get some reparations, eight months ago Wanta supposedly entered into a written agreement with the Bush administration to repatriate $4.5 trillion dollars in which approximately $1.5 trillion would be tax payments for the U.S. Treasury with the remaining money to be used to jump start the American economy.

However, in eight months not one red cent has surfaced with Wanta going underground and not speaking to the press while his spokesman, Ameri-Trust Treasurer Michael C. Cottrell and London writer Christopher Story continue to blame the delay in honoring the Wanta settlement on the stubbornness and criminal behavior of the entire Bush cabinet.

It should be noted that others have come forward, including V.K. Durham, who have questioned the veracity of the Wanta version of the story, saying there is “another more deceptive” side to Wanta.

Durham called Wanta “an old pysops agent” who worked in the past with Wanta, having a hand in illegally trying to obtain her trust account after the suspicious death of her military husband who was in control of numerous CIA black ops bank accounts.

Since Durham leveled her charges, Wanta and his camp became quite irate, privately saying the charges were ridiculous but publicly refusing to comment on anything that might conflict with Wanta’s version of his story.

Further, when the Arctic Beacon questioned whether the Vatican was involved in holding up the Wanta settlement, Cottrell categorically denied any involvement by Rome, but later issued a story through writer Story in London, indicating the Vatican was actually trying to help release the Wanta funds.

And after this statement was made it was immediately met by a host of “true American patriots” with suspicion and even laughter, this faction of patriots knowing that the sinister and evil Jesuit Order and the Vatican  “have no intentions of doing anything good for the American people and its economy.”

Further, the Wanta camp, through writer Story’s comments, never wanted  to seriously probe  and the Vatican issue and even stated the Queen of England was on the good side, helping them retrieve the money while, this same faction of “true American patriots”, knows the Queen works together with the Vatican evil-doers and is a part of the Vatican-led New World Order.

Returning to the question of “who really is Leo Emil Wanta”, Wanta first claims Reagan is a true patriot while others can prove with hard facts that “Reagan was one of the biggest traitors” in the history of the Republic.

Further, Wanta claims he has been fighting against the evil in the last three Presidential administrations while new evidence has now surfaced by researcher and writer, Alf Mendes, who claims Wanta had close ties with Bush Sr. and others working for the Vatican led New World Order.

Here is an article recently released by Mendes, adding some facts Wanta left out in his recent interviews on Greg Szymanski’s radio show, The Ivestigative Journal and on the Arctic Beacon web site:

MONEY-LAUNDERERS TO THE GLOBAL ELITE 

By Alf Mendes – Nov.3, 2006 -- bilderberg.org 

It is an indisputable fact that the collapse of the USSR in 1991 was the most significant post-WW 2 event on the world scene (as the Americans would be the first to admit) - leading, as it did, inevitably, to the cataclysmic scenario facing us today. It is thus essential to examine this said event in greater detail if we are to reach a clearer understanding of the matter - always keeping in mind that it was but one more step in the stand-off between the capitalist West and the communist USSR -  and that its border with that unstable nation, Afghanistan, would, understandably, play a crucial role in subsequent events - given the fact that the Soviet Republics in that region were of Muslim orientation.

This was exacerbated by the following events preceding the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan in 1979: (a) In Afghanistan,Mohammed Daoud ousted his brother-in-law, King Zahir Shah, in 1973; (b) In 1978, Mir Akbar Parcham, leader of the communist-orientated Parcham Party (of Afghanis tan), was murdered & Daoud ordered the arrest of other leading figures of the

Parcham Party - which resulted in the Parcham Party taking over the government in a coup. Daoud was killed.

[1]  As revealed by Zbigniew Brzezinski:  on July 3, 1979, unknown to the American public and Congress, President Jimmy Carter secretly authorized $500 million to create an international terrorist movement that would spread Islamic fundamentalism in Central Asia and destabilise  the Soviet Union. The CIA called this OperationCyclone and in the following years poured $4 billion into setting up Islamic training schools in Pakistan (Taliban means  student ). Young zealots were sent to the CIA's spy training camp in Virginia, where future members of al-Qaeda were taught  sabotage skills  - terrorism... In Pakistan, they were directed by British MI6 officers and trained by the SAS .

[2]  Five months later, and well-aware of Ops. Cyclone, in December  79, the USSR invaded Afghanistan, and after a long and devastating war with guerrilla opposition forces(the mujahideen) the last of the Soviet troops left Afghanistan in February1989, their economy and rubles in tatters. America s role in destabilising the USSR (as noted above) therefore calls for closer scrutiny, and from the vantage point of  hindsight, the fact that in the aftermath of the collapse of the USSR the American oil companies (with others) quickly bought their way into the vast reserves of Russian oil and gas is surely proof enough that this was one of the crucial aims of Americas strategy.

[3]  This  destabilisation  was implemented, primarily, by money-laundering - an illegal method used by political, military, intelligence, business, drug cartels, and the Sicilian Mafia - better known as  Black Ops. . Two Americans, Leo Emil Wanta, and the notorious Marc (Reich) Rich, were the main players in this - but it must not be forgotten that the Medellin Cartel and the Sicilian Mafia also played a crucial role in this money-laundering scam. 

Leo Emil Wanta had worked at the White House, the National Security Council, the Central Intelligence Agency and six other government agencies during his career (which lasted from 1963 until his arrest in 1993), holding numerous jobs: in the DEA, the CIA, and Department of Defense - many of a secretive nature. And as for the Soviet Union - in a publicised interview he had stated that, during Reagan's administration, and working under Bill Casey s Special Operations Branch, Black Ops. (see above)  he had dealt with both the fusion bomb and the destabilisation of the ruble  - in conjunction with Kok Howie Kwong of the Chinese Secret Service!

[4]  As evidence of America s enormous influence on the global political scene, Wanta was acting as Somalian ambassador to Switzerland when he was arrested by authorities there on July 7, 1993, in Geneva, held for four months, then extradited to Wisconsin to stand trial for state taxes of $14,000 owed for the years 1982 and 1988., and sentenced to 22 years in prison, for a crime which he was not guilty of. He had,in fact, paid the sum noted above twice - under protest! It later transpired that the Wisconsin revenue agent at the trial had fiddled Wantas  state tax returns:  a print out from the State in December 1995 revealed that the sum he owed was $00.15!

[5] Intriguingly, on September 21st 1996 - and while in prison - he wrote a letter to Hillary Rodham Clinton, referring to "U.S. President Bill Clinton's Short Term Notes and IMF Sale of Bullion", reminding her both of his "de-stabilization of the Soviet Union Rubles (SUR)", and how he had "prevented the Soviet & Italian Mafiosa from the Soviet Funds in favour of our U.S. Treasury &Metals Accounts in excess of US$ 150 billion" - closing his letter with the somewhat threatening statement: "Until my legal release from the un-consitutional/ false incarceration in Wisconsin--as a diplomat & non-resident--I am legally interested in the corporate placement of short-term notes & I.M.F. gold bullion/troy ounce delivery contract. Thank you for your kind assistance in this timely situation".

In plain english: if he was not released, he would  spill the beans . On Jan. 10,1997, Wanta received a reply to this letter from Erskine Bowles at the White House, as a result of which, on February 1, 1997, after Bowles had checked with W.H. Agency Relations, Leo Wanta was released on $90,000 bail. His threat  had proven effective! 

Here, it is important to note that at one point  Wanta had bank accounts at Metishe Bank in Moscow, Avenue Bank on the Champs-Elysee in Paris, Credito Italiano in Milan, Anker Bank in Geneva, Swiss Bank Corporation in Geneva, the Algemeine Spaar in Brussels,the Zentralsparkasse und Kommerzialbank in Vienna, Creditanstalt Bankverein in Vienna,

and--the perennial favorite of money launderers--Citibank in Milan, New York, andLos Angeles.

[6] Furthermore, according to Wanta s Los Angeles attorney, he and

President George Bush Snr. had  set up the Ameritrust account in the Credit Suissebank for the government to use in case it needed to counter terrorists from overseas.

[7]  Inasmuch as banks bear the ultimate responsibility for the movement of money – including that which is  laundered . Their role in this matter will therefore be looked at more closely below. 

In 1983 Marc David Rich was convicted in U.S. federal court of tax evasion, racketeering,and other charges related to Rich's oil deals with Iran during a U.S. embargo,and fled to Switzerland, where he has settled since, having gained Swiss citizenship - thus making him not extraditable to face trial in America. However, his wife lived on in America and contributed money to Clinton s library fund and Hillary’s  Senate campaign in 2000. It was therefore hardly surprising that President Clinton pardoned Marc Rich just before leaving office in January of 2001. [8] 

Head of the world s second largest commodities company in the world, Marc Rich was soon providing 5 million tons of grain to Russia, as well as becoming the largest exporter of raw materials from that country. After all, he had been operating on Soviet territory since 1983.  As reported in the Russian Izvestiaya of June 5th1993:

Rich collaborated with the Russian Istok, transferring 4 million tons of petroleum to Western Europe - at a profit of about half-a-billion dollars.

And, by 1993, his yearly turnover on ex-Soviet territory was $3 billion - up half-a-billion dollars over the previous year. 

In an article of this length, the above is understandably not a complete list of the money-laundering activities of Wanta and Rich, but confirms the role played by America in it. At this point, it is important to examine the role of the banks, as implied above. It goes without saying that they must have been perfectly well aware of the illegality involved. This is confirmed by the fact that, that centralbank of central banks , the Bank for International Settlements  [9], had, in December

1988, in their Statement:  Prevention Of Criminal Use Of The Banking System ForThe Purpose Of Money-Laundering  considered the matter comprehensively. The BIS had been formed in 1930, ostensibly to deal with the problem of economically unstable post-WW 1 Germany. In fact (as revealed by historian Carroll Quigley in his bookTragedy and Hope - a History of the World in Our Time  [Macmillan & Co. 1966]), its immediate aim was to install the Nazi Party into power in 1933 to act as a tactical foil against communist USSR - a tactic in which Hjalmar Schacht, ex-Governor of the Reichbank, and co-founder of the BIS, had played a crucial role - with not-a-little-help from the fascist-minded Bank of England Governor Montagu Norman (a fellow co-founder of the BIS)- and Corporate America. 

To return to the BIS Statement mentioned above: of particular significance are thefollowing comments made in the preamble/introduction: (section 3) noting that in some countries the national banking supervisory authorities have a specific responsibility in the suppression of money-laundering - while others do not have direct responsibility - This reflects the role of banking supervision, the primary function of which is to maintain the overall financial stability and soundness of banks rather than to ensure that individual transactions conducted by bank customers are legitimate; and (section 6) This  Statement is not a legal document and its implementation will depend on national practice and law.....Whatever the legal position in different countries, the Committee considers that the first and most important safeguard against money-laundering is the integrity of banks own managements ..(this authors  emphases).

In other words: the most influential powerful banking organisation on this earth is unable to stop money-laundering. Indeed, many -if not all - of its members engage in this  illegal  practice! 

The only conclusion to be drawn from this is that this is the price we have to pay for living in a capitalist society.
